If you are wondering how the name Black Cat fits with fireworks, it has to do with Chinese tradition.

Over the past 60 years, the Black Cat company has moved from the simple firecracker to a full product line that features more than 500 pyrotechnic items. Executives state that they pride themselves on “quality and innovation.” From the old nostalgic firecrackers to the most up-to-date offerings on the market, your next fireworks display will be awesome with Black Cat fireworks.

Popular types of Black Cat fireworks include ground items such as fountains and spinners, aerial items such as mortar shells and roman candles, noisemakers such as firecrackers and novelty items. Fountains and spinners sit on the ground, and according to the design, either sent out streams of sparks skyward or use a spewing of sparks to create a random rotating movement on the ground. Aerial fireworks are very popular for good reason – the diverse range of effects from large, colorful chrysanthemum bursts to shooting star comets to parachute lanterns that float gently back to the ground. A novelty firework is always a family pleaser; these low-grade fireworks include sparklers, smoke bombs, confetti poppers and other interesting fireworks that accommodate a wide rage of ages.
